Want to take up non-technical yet challenging (FUN!!) hikes to the summits of the Cascade/Olympic mountains? We're doing it....

Want to visit awesome alpine lakes and meet new hikers, join us.

This meet up will pick hikes that give stunning views from the top and any other hike the organizer chooses :P

PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS BELOW!

Organizers are facilitators on NW hikes, so we share the responsibility of trail finding together. We do not pretend to be guides. Expect the same risks and take the same precautions you would take if you were hiking alone.

This is not a beginners hiking group. If you find Rattlesnake ridge a challenging hike then this is not the group for you. Mt Si would be considered a very straight forward hike for anyone who wants to participate in the group hikes. You will be expected to be in a good physical condition for hiking.

We focus on picking hikes that required getting a little out of the comfort zone...

This is a dog friendly group, unless otherwise stated well trained dogs are welcome on all hikes.

IMPORTANT: These hikes may sometime involve melting snow, scrambling, exposure and wet trails.. so come equipped and be responsible for your own safety :)

Please Read the Discussions page for more information about this meetup group.
